Intervention:
Weight px regularly
`
Monitor intake and output. Note urine color, and measure specific gravity as indicated
Encourage to avoid food that cause dehydration such as coffee and tea
Rationale:
Changes in weight provide information in fluid imbalance and the adequacy of fluid volume
replacement
1.040 indicates severe hypovolemia and kidney involvement. Note: Administration of MgSO4
may cause transient increase increase in output
These changes of v/s are associated with fluid volume loss and/or hypovelemia
This enhances placental and renal perfusion, reduces adrenal activity, and may lower BP
Fluid replacement treats hypovolemia, yet must be given cautiously to prevent overload
Patients with HELLP syndrome awaiting delivery of the fetus may benefit from transfusion of
platelets when count is below 20,000
